Chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and dementia affect millions in England, with type 2 diabetes costing the UK 20 billion pounds annually. A new approach focusing on addressing root causes rather than symptoms has shown success in helping patients recover from chronic diseases and challenges the notion that genetics alone determine health.
Insights
- Chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and dementia are often rooted in lifestyle factors such as diet, stress, and sleep deprivation, challenging the traditional view of diseases as standalone entities.
- Personalized, preventative medicine focusing on addressing root causes rather than symptoms can potentially transform global health outcomes by shifting away from a symptom-focused approach towards holistic care tailored to individual needs.
